One paragraph minimum per question. Why do you wish to play this species?: I am a big fan of representing the factions either not showcased or simply not well known by the general playerbase. But more importantly, Dionae was the first WL that I ever actually really wanted. Like the skrell, they are a truly alien group that even with human influence have very neat tricks to help separate them from the average man. The sprite design is super cool, and I think the challenges they have to face are among the harshest of any other alien, making them a great vet pick! Other than that, they have incredible lore and I want to see that in-game. What makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a human?: Like synthetics, they sort of are an “imitation” of human-like sapience, being a group of nymphs that join together and share in a hivemind… or work together as a choir! They have a very strong sense of community, peace and a wish to proactively achieve things through words (or song) rather than through physical force. They are wanders, voyagers, and vagabonds set out to live a fruitful life for personal growth. Character Application Character Name: Peaceful Cry for Freedom Write a backstory for your character. This may include their origin, education, personality and how they arrived to the SCCV Horizon. They came from a grouping of seven, all a few weeks after their birth. Born in a Biesel Eternal Temple, they were assigned a guide, the Eternal Priest "Drifting into Starless Night Guiding the Youths Through". Slowly, they grew to learn how to walk, speak properly, and work out relationships. They had built bonds with other diona in the temple, and slowly accumulated knowledge through scholarly study. They were very peaceful, at first speaking kindly and sorrowfully, but not old enough to really make any which way of it. They had for the early half decade spent a lot of time working towards the sciences, their master close in toe. The bound between Geras and Coeus was akin to a lifelong tutor and their student, and the young one feared the time when they would have to come and pass. That time would unfortunately come, with the second invasion by the ASSN onto the Tau Ceti System. They were a Loyalist, and like many before them, joined up into the TCAF upon the first threat of invasion. They had joined as a gunner, wanting to use their skills in arms to aid the forces. They had fully solidified the Singular Sound mind type, taking reference to the humans they worked alongside to better fit in. Yet that hope was soon drawn out, as Ozdemir was not young to the art of war. The 35th Fleet had done terrible blows, what had been to them a naive notion of some chance to prove themselves, turned into a miserable slog and tragic retreat. There was no victory, especially after the capture of Reade, and the confusing mess of nations who mustered to stop the Solarian Fleet. Shortly after the push for reade, the side gun had malfunctioned and burst out in flames and their right arm caught the fire. The Main porter had seized the extingisher and put them out, recieving some moderate burns. It was the first real pain they had felt, a nasty sting that eat at their vulnerable and young bark, it tormented them for a great while. The crisp flames would turn their heart ashen and bitter, filled with ideas that before were otherworldly but now laid in their soundscape for hours at a time. They served another year before departing back for liberty's cluster. Now a true loyalist, they heartily debated amongst them on the question of solarian diplomacy. They returned lost, having been bitter from the aftermath of the conflict, and the death they saw. They soon reunited with their Geras, who gained considerable concern for the young lost one. Struggling with some deep attachment issues and loss of self-worth, the Geras made great lengths to see the coeus back to enlightenment. Something which the coeus is deeply thankful for, even if they are still martial among in regard to solarians. The help ensured total loyalty, working as the Geras's assistant and carrying their things. Where the Geras goes, they go, and that happens to lead them onto the Horizon. How has the recent events of the Orion Spur impacted your character? Events such as the Phoron Scarcity, the Solarian Collapse or even the Invasions of Biesel for interstellar-wide affairs, while region-specific events such as the Peacekeeper Mandate, The Titan Rises or even Cold Dawn may impact your character. Being a supporter of the Biesel Federal republic through and through, they are adamant that the Republic is simply going through growing pains, and that a solution to the problem will be found. They are adamant on the righteousness of the peacekeeper mandates, believing that the stripping of solarian power is for the good of the whole galaxy. The Magna Expansio arc is something they are aware of and generally disgusted by the Gla’orrs autocratic and frankly xenophobic regime. They are totally supportive of the Omnivirate's Intervention in the Omi Providence arc, though are not the best with theological apologies. How does your character view the megacorporation they work for? Nanotrasen is something that the Gera supports and thus in turn they are generally supportive. Peaceful remembers the staunch resistance of Trasen against the Solarian Alliance and views the family kindly if not a little stricken to selfishness. The benefits that nanotrasen gives are quite nice for a dionae in regard to free training and certifications, something peaceful has relied on in the Eternal Temple Colleges. Nanotrasen's rivalry with Einstein is one that Peaceful admires and wishes that someday NT will totally beat them out. Edited March 3 by StewardsCap 2
Arbiter_Ambrose Posted March 3 Posted March 3 I think Union would be a great candidate for the diona whitelist, he is capable of roleplaying other species excellently and I have no doubt he would continue to do it with diona, he also showed great interest while we talked in creating his character. Over all a big +1.
